Approximate Purchase Date: next few months
Budget Range: 600-700 (including monitor)
System Usage from Most to Least Important: running Adobe suite programs, 3D modeling and rendering programs, gaming
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: any?
Country: US
Parts Preferences: none
Overclocking: probably not
Additional Comments: I'm a freelance designer, i've been using a mac since about 2004 and this would be my first time building a PC and will be primarily for running Adobe programs, working with large graphics files, 3D modeling with various programs, static 3D rendering, but I would like to be able to play games decently. Doesn't have to be able to play the newest and latest games at 100% detail, but I would like to be able to play a fairly new game fairly decently on it. What this means is that (i think) that processing power and cores is most important, ram and video card considerations maybe less important, and i think for storage more is better than faster (don't need an SSD).
It's been so long since I've bought a PC I'm open to any opinions on brands, parts, etc.
Thanks!
